QUINTIN
Pagkatapos kong ihatid si Reina Joy sa kanila, tumakbo ako sa kabilang rota kung nasaan ang mga kasama ko.
As I arrive, I catched my breath and cross my arms, badly frowning my brows as if they almost meet each other. I waited for a bit until they arrive.
"Wala bang sumunod sa inyo?" tanong ni Shannon sakin.
"Wala," I answered confidently and prepare my brass knuckles.
Tinapon sa amin ni Mara ang mga tubo at mga kahoy but in my case, I will just use my brass knuckles. Mas maganda to kasi pag tinamaan ka, mapapa daing ka kaagad sa sakit.
"Tara na," sabi ni Shannon habang hawak-hawak niya sa likod ang kanyang bullet brass knuckles.
Wala na 'tong atrasan pa.
Naglakad kaming labing-walo sa plaza kung saan inatake si Gino kaninang umaga.
Earlier, while Reina Joy is talking with her brother, I stepped inside Gino's ward and woke him up.
When he woke up, he told me what happen during that moment. "Hinarangan nila ang daanan ko. I already have a thought that something will happen but I didn't entertain that beforehand," Gino said.
"They said, inutusan lang daw sila ng bossing nila and they start attacking me at the park," he continued.
"Bakit mo hinahanap si Reina Joy nung nagising ka?" tanong ni Mara kay Gino.
"Because they said dahil daw kay Reina Joy masasaktan ako, dahil nasaktan daw ang bossing nila sa ginawa niya. If they run into Reina Joy instead of me, there could be a possibility that something bad would've happen to her." Gino turned his hand into fist.
"Quintin?" Itinaas ko ang tingin ko kay Mara.
"I don't know who that boss they are talking about. That seems new to me," I answered, playing my knuckles.
"Si Reina Joy, it's dangerous that she'll move around then and there. Baka kung ano ang mangyari sa kanya," sabi ni Gino.
Tumango ako sa kanya at hinawakan ang braso niya. "Ako ang bahala." I assure him. Gino nodded his head.
"Saan ka nila inatake? Baka-" I stopped talking when he reached for his phone. Tumingin ako sa cellphone ni Gino and my brows frowned when someone is calling him. No contact name. "Answer it then record it," I told him. Gino nodded his head and answered the unknown call.
"Hello.....Sige, mamaya." Tumingin si Gino sa amin at saka ibinaba ang tawag.
"What's it?" tanong ni Mara.
"6 pm... Center park." I clenched my jaw.

Nagsisimula ng lumalim ang gabi at ang mga poste dito sa plaza ang tanging nagsisilbing ilaw namin. "As expected... darating kayo." Pinagsingkit ko ang mga mata ko nang maaninag ko sila.
Sa likuran niya ay ang mga kasama niya na may hawak-hawak na kahoy.
"Matagal na rin tayong hindi nagkita hindi ba?" nakangising tanong ni Shannon sa kanya.
Tumawa siya, pati ang mga kasamahan niya ay natawa din. "Siguro naman alam niyo ang kaya naming gawin diba, Shannon?"
"You know him? His face is kind of unfamiliar with us," I whispered.
Shannon turned his head at me. "He is Emman. I met him when I first stepped at JM. That dumbass. We can knock them down," he answered. I nodded my head.
"Alam na nila boss! Nakita ko nga yung kaklase nilang babae eh. Ang ganda!" I clenched my fist after what I heard from this goon.
Nakapasok ba 'to sa school? Sa pagkakaalam ko hindi nagpapa pasok si kuya guard ng kung sino-sino plus they are unfamiliar to me unless....
